This fonds consists of records created, accumulated and used by Radville Christian College and its successor, Western Christian College (later known as Western Christian College and High School) in its daily administration and operations primarily as a bible college and high school. Locations of the school included: Radville, Saskatchewan (1945-1957); North Weyburn, Saskatchewan (1957-1989); Dauphin, Manitoba (1989-2003) and Regina, Saskatchewan (2003-2012). The fonds includes the records of bible schools held at Minton, Ogema and Radville that preceded the establishment of Radville Christian College. It also includes records accumulated and used by the school that pertain to the history and doctrine of the Churches of Christ in western Canada. Additionally, records of the school's board of directors are included in the fonds.

The fonds was arranged into four series: Churches of Christ; Radville / Western Christian College; Graphic Items; and Board of Directors.

The types of records in this fonds include: photographic prints, negatives, slides, transparencies and albums; newspapers and periodicals; yearbooks; minutes and agendas; publications, including church and school histories; newspaper clippings; programmes; invitations; constitutions and by-laws; certificates; event planning files; school catalogues; school records and class lists; church minute and attendance books; guest books; scrapbooks; fabric preaching charts; objects; architectural drawings; audio and moving image recordings; and digital photographic, textual, audio, video and multi-media records.
